The Anatomy of Peace
The Anatomy of Peace: Resolving the Heart of Conflict | The Arbinger Institute
5 posts | 8 read | 4 to read
NEW EDITION, REVISED AND UPDATED What if conflicts at home, conflicts at work, and conflicts in the world stem from the same root cause? What if we systematically misunderstand that cause? And what if, as a result, we systematically perpetuate the very problems we think we are trying to solve? Every day. From the authors of Leadership and Self-Deception comes an international bestseller that instills hope and inspires reconciliation. Through a moving story of parents who are struggling with their own children and with problems that have come to consume their lives, we learn from once-bitter enemies the way to transform personal, professional, and global conflicts, even when war is upon us.

Mehso-so

This book offers some good advice for resolving conflict, but the narrative framework was cringe-worthy.

The ideas are presented as parents drop their unruly kids at a summer wilderness camp and then spend two days in a seminar where they focus on the parents‘ issues. Cue cheesy dialogue.

Takeaways: Be honest about how you are contributing to the conflict. Be curious about other people. Don‘t be an asshole.
